Who’s Who in Woody Allen’s ‘Midnight In Paris’

Here & Now Guest:

Woody Allen’s time-twisting new film, “Midnight in Paris,” transports the audience as well as main character, Gil, into 1920s Paris, where literary, artistic and musical figures all congregated. Gil rubs elbows with Ernest Hemingway, Pablo Picasso and Cole Porter.

New York Times reporter Joseph Berger says of 1920s Paris, “It’s hard to come up with another period that was as fertile and as productive, where there were so many talented people gathered in one spot.”
